A question about "cutting in" shortening (or butter) into flour:
Can someone comment on whether it would work to do it with an electric mixer
(regular beaters, the kind with thin, flat blades) at high speed?  Sounds like
this might do as good a job of cutting up the shortening/butter and mixing it
with the flour as a pastry blender or knives or a food processor (but I have
not tried it yet).  Comments (from someone else who has tried it, whether it
failed or succeeded)?
